Well, I am sure many of you Lane #1 fans (of which I was one years ago) have been reading my posts back and forth to Steven explaining my position on Lane #1 and how I feel they do not have enough versatility in their lineup, and have lost what made them famous back in the C2 days. I am posting this to put my money where my mouth is and see if I can get a bite on my offer.
I am willing to trade a few of the balls in my current lineup for balls that you may have from the Lane #1 lineup. I will redrill them, and put them in my current arsenal and give them an honest assessment based on performance only. I will compare them to the other balls I have, and tell you how they work in comparison across a variety of different patterns. I want people to see that I am serious, so I am throwing down the gauntlet and am willing to put a few Lane #1 balls in my league and tournament rotation, and see how they do.
Here is what I am looking for: LH single drill, 15lb. Lane #1 balls (current or recently discontinued pieces). Preferably the span would be around 4 3/4", but a little shorter or longer is o.k. The balls I have for trade are the following: Hammer No Mercy, Brunswick Copperhead, Brunswick Twisted Fury Solid, MoRich Awesome Revs, and a few others at the shop (not sure of exactly what is there, lol).
If you are interested, shoot me a pm, and we can work out a trade. If I get any bites, I will post up pics of the balls and let you know how they are working in my arsenal. I want to see if I will be proven wrong with a real time test of current Lane #1 balls, no b.s. Thanks.
